WIX Element Filter 42494 - NEW

The WIX 42494 is a high-performance secondary air filter engineered for severe-duty applications in construction, agricultural, and industrial machinery. Designed as an inner safety element to pair with primary filters such as WIX 46774 or 42493, it provides an additional layer of defense by trapping smaller airborne particles that could otherwise damage engine components.

Built with premium cellulose filtration media and reinforced structural support, this filter maintains airflow while offering strong contaminant retention. Its robust design helps resist collapse under demanding conditions while ensuring reliable sealing for reduced bypass risk.

Why It Stands Out

The WIX 42494 is valued for dependable OEM-level filtration performance, especially in dusty jobsite or agricultural conditions where secondary filtration is essential. Its durable build and broad heavy-equipment compatibility make it a strong replacement option for maintaining engine longevity and airflow efficiency.
